[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
I've been trying to search out a solution here, but only getting one search per 30 seconds makes it pretty hard... so I'm posting.

I've been running the latest CM7 on my Telus Milestone (with a few memory tweaks as recommended by others here), and it is running very well. Everything runs great without problems.

The only issue I have is with Google Listen being killed immediately whenever I switch something else to the foreground.

I use Mixzing as a media player, and it is never killed while running in the background.

Is there a way to give Listen more priority, so that it stays running while playing a podcast?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
which tweaks did you do?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
I did your tweaks actually... VMHeap 40mb, Minfree 6, 10, 24, 40, 50, 60 (and now using 6, 8, 24, 26, 28, 30, which is a TINY bit better).

With those minor tweaks to the std CM7, the phone runs awesome... except for Google Listen in the background.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Splog:
this probably isn't too helpful, but:

i've always found Listen to get dropped, even though it has an icon in the notification bar. every single version of Android i've used has this issue (including stock). i've no idea why. i've since moved to DoggCatcher and it seems to stay without issue.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
@splog, changing podcatchers is crossing my mind. Listen has been a problem for me too since Eclair, but I like it so I have just put up with it in the past. But it is getting to be a bit much now, so if I can't find a way to make it better, I'm going to pick something else.

I really like Listen for it's ability to integrate with Reader... so I can subscribe to a new podcast on my computer, then it just shows up on the phone after the next refresh. But I'm sure other catchers do the same.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
I'm glad you like the tweak and that it's improved with the change.

Any noticable loss in performance with the new memfree settings?

I want some feedback on that before posting a new script.

Also, here is something from feeyo on locking any app in memory

...

http://www.cronosproject.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=84&t=818#p30297

I'm gonna try it and if it works as planned, include the link in the supercharge OP
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
I used memfree settings of: 6, 8, 24, 26, 28, 30 last night, and overall, I don't like them as much as 6, 10, 24, 40, 50, 60. The original settings seemed to just be snappier and overall worked better. I've reverted back them.

I spent quite a bit of time last night testing... Using AutoMemoryManager, I tried increasing the priority of Listen, and setting it to "Never Kill" and changing the secondary server ram settings and on and on.... (I did keep it all straight, my day job involves software testing on PCs). While I could improve the ability of Listen to keep running, I could not keep it alive all the time. Loading Google Maps always managed to kill it, even if other apps could be used without problems now.

I also tried ACast as an alternate, and it is better behaved than Listen... but still could not keep it running. I didn't play with it's priority as much...

Eventually I reset everything and went to bed. lol... try again on the weekend!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
Yeah... that's as fast as it gets... :D

Put this in gscript.

It should help keep google listen in memory...

PPID=$(pidof [B]com.google.listen.process.name[/B])
echo "-17" > /proc/$PPID/oom_adj

I don't have google listen installed but AMM will tell you what it is.

I gotta try and find a permanent way to keep an app's priority high on each boot and permanently.... Feeyo at cronos project gave me that tip :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
Just reporting a change in behaviour...

Now running CM7 - 0.08-11.03.27 RC3. Heap size is 40mb, and memfree settings are all default CM7 (6,8,12,16,24,32).

Performance overall is very good. And best of all, Google Listen stays running in the background! I'm not sure what changed in the latest rev that resulted in this, but it's great!

Just to verify, I then went back to @zeppelinrox memory settings of (6, 10, 24, 40, 50, 60). Overall performance was better (snappier), but Maps could kill Listen again. Changing again to stock settings resulted in Listen running in safely in background.

So overall, I'm pretty happy now. I'm going to leave it running like this for awhile, at least until CM7 settles down a bit...

Thanks everyone for the help!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
6, 8, 24, 26, 28, 30 would have been better than 6, 10, 24, 40, 50, 60

The first set is just as snappy as the second set but won't kill background apps nearly as much.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
I just tried 6, 8, 24, 26, 28, 30 , and starting Google Maps killed Listen instantly.

Everything seems to be a balancing act with the Milestone... you can gain here, but you give up there.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] zeppelinrox:
wow eh... Listen must sit in the 4th slot

But if you put this in gscript, it should be invulnerable for a couple of hours at least...

PPID=$(pidof com.google.listen.process.name)

echo "-17" > /proc/$PPID/oom_adj

replace the process name with the correct process.

I've been testing with ES Security manage but that app just sleeps so after a couple of hours it loses it's high priority.

I'd appreciate it if you could give that a try as it could turn out to be a very workable solution :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] gs111:
I will work on trying that, but I'm heading out of town to a conference and won't be playing with the phone much. I'll try it next weekend.

Thanks for working on this though, I do appreciate your help!

This morning when I turned on my phone (turned it off to charge last night) I was unable to get a 4G or even a 3G signal. It keeps staying on 1X. I have a short-cut to the *#*#4636*#*# menu to turn 4G on and off, but it's not doing anything. I have pulled the battery/sim card out 5 times and it is still stuck on 1X. I understand that the 4G/3G antenna is built on to the back battery cover of the phone, but the cover is on so it should work. I had a 4G signal before I turned the phone off last night to charge.

Another question, when I turned my phone on this morning from a full charge. The battery showed it at 89%....How come it didn't get a full charge? The phone was stuck on the charger for the whole afternoon/night yesterday. Everytime I took the charger off, it will go from 100% to 92% so I charged it some more.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
When I travel I do this to get 3G in Hawaii since Only Oahu Island has TMO 3G.

Here is the way you can do it:

Also by locking into 3g speeds, if you ever go into a non 3g area, or if your 3g signal is poor in your area, then your phone calls will drop and data will stop, unless you go back and set the phone to its default automatic gsm/cdma settings.

Dial: *#*#197328640#*#*

Click [1] debug screen

Click [8] phone control

Click [7] network control

Click [2] band selection

This is where you make a change, default setting is [1] automatic, which means it chooses automatically between gsm/cdma (Edge vs 3g). So we are going to change this and set it to wcdma band which is 3g.

Click [2] wcdma band

Click [1] wcdma all []

Now it should display “select wcdma all bands [*]"

Now on the bottom of your phone, click the menu key, it’s the one next to the home key, now click back, menu again one more time, back one more time, this is just to confirm it set to number 2 wcdma band.

Now click menu key one last time, click end.. and you are done. Now to double verify that the phone is locked into 3g, dial in: *#*#4636#*#*

Then click phone information Then scroll down to “set preferred network type” It should now have listed “wcdma only.” PS, if you tried to do a shortcut, and just set wcdma this way first without doing the lock above, it would just go back to gsm/cdma auto once you exit the screen.

Your phone should now be locked into 3g.
